2 Corinthians 10 verse 4:
"Since the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but are powerful through God for the demolition of stronghold. We demolish arguments".
WE have used this before, but it is always good to declare theses Words Our Lord and Our Friend says about us continually.
The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but powerful in God to defeat and Pull down strongholds. The Battle has already be won by Christ Jesus dying on the cross for us. Standing in His Victory is the weapon to take a hold of, plus the Sword of The Spirit which is His Word. and we will see strongholds fall.
The best way to defeat an enemy is by tactics, they are not even expecting. Lets look back at the story of Jericho {Joshua Chapter 6}: How could the military might of a secure city, think they would be defeated by people marching around the walls of the city.
Pride of life for one, Pride could not believe it could be beaten by such a humbling act. The people were marching around the walls in silence, not responding to the jeers of the people who thought they were safe.
People marching around in silence made no military sense at all, but by marching the people were gaining spiritual authority, by exercising faith, obedience and self control.
The world reason may say give as good as you get, not realizing in a way they are right. This is not a tit for tat strategy. If people put there best into attacking us, we should give the best we have in God, to stand against them. Just as Pride can be brought down by humility.
Fiery darts will come, but as we raise the Shield of Faith, we must take up the Sword of The Spirit to stand against all wickedness that tries to come against us. The Sword of The Spirit is The Word of God and there is awesome power in God's Word.
Obedience, with humility, through the Word of God, will bring down many strongholds.
God Bless.
